Why are there rumors these days that Universal Studios Beijing will announce expansion plans on May 1st this year? It’s also mentioned that the expansion will involve ride attractions, rather than a new theme land. Does anyone know the truth behind these rumors?

I remember seeing this in a 2024 discussion. Tourists on a VIP tour asked the guide. They learned the Harry Potter expansion area has a reserved space for Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure.
A few days ago, a netizen commented online. Their family member is a supplier. The supplier was already sending construction materials to Universal Beijing Resort.If there’s no official info on Beijing government websites, this information isn’t very reliable.

March 2025 Bird's - eye View Update: At present, the ground hardening has been completed at the sites of two brand - new haunted houses, which are awaiting construction. One known piece of information is that one of the new haunted houses may be called "The Haunted Piano Study". This information flashed by in the comments of online discussions, and its authenticity remains to be verified.
Currently, it's known that Freaky Farm may be newly upgraded on the original basis or replaced by a completely new haunted house theme. However, considering that in 2023 and 2024, the character of EMO Tu (the Demon Rabbit / the Zombie Rabbit) in Freaky Farm was widely loved by everyone, it is likely that Freaky Farm will be retained in some form. So the probability of Freaky Farm's return is only 50%.
As can be seen in the picture, Jack's Circus and House No. 81, which debuted in 2024, will be retained and will continue to operate during this year's Halloween event (Scares @ Universal 2025).

A message from X blogger Universalapex said that Universal Creative has wrapped up the construction of Epic Universe. Currently, they’ve embarked on designing new theme parks for Universal Studios locations worldwide, Universal Beijing Resort included.
Since its debut, Universal Beijing Resort has never disclosed any official expansion plans. It’s reasonable to anticipate that during its fifth anniversary celebrations in 2026, announcements regarding new themed zones, rides, and other offerings could well be on the cards.

A new shortcut has been built, located at the junction of Minion Land and Jurassic World.

Universal Studios Beijing is gearing up for its 2025 Spring Carnival, scheduled to run from March 21 to June 1. Among the highlights is a new collaboration with Genshin Impact, a popular game developed by miHoYo. This marks the park’s second partnership with a Chinese gaming brand, following its collaboration with Tencent’s Honor of Kings in 2022 and 2023.
However, past collaborations of this nature have not been well-received. The Honor of Kings event, in particular, garnered low ratings and criticism from visitors. Reports indicate that Universal Studios Beijing may have no plans for future partnerships with Tencent Games as a result.
Despite this, the park has decided to collaborate with the controversial Genshin Impact this time. It is expected that this collaboration will once again face significant criticism from visitors.

(The accompanying image features previously circulated recruitment information for Genshin Impact characters. Based on the earlier Honor of Kings collaboration, activities in the park are expected to include character meet-and-greets and float parades inspired by the game.)

The latest aerial photographs have revealed the most recent developments regarding the two reserved plots of land. There is a rumored new haunted house project. The groundwork for it has already been finished. In a few months' time, if the steel structure framework is erected on this site, it might potentially turn into a new haunted house.

Yes, I have also seen such rumors. It is said that there will be 5 haunted houses in the Halloween event next year, of which House No.81 and Jack's Circus will be retained, Freaky Farm will be replaced with a new theme, plus two new themed haunted houses.

Aerial photographs show that construction has started on two reserved sites for expansion. But whether it's a new theme land or a ride at the moment is unknown. There has been speculation that a boat docking point for the future lagoon show is being built at the rear of Mel’s Drive-in Restaurant.

The Fast & Furious project was canceled early in construction, but the park's vehicle displays remained, and the advertising background art and theme music were still on display and playing. Currently, this Fast & Furious reservation is being used as a warehouse. Rumor has it that Universal Studios Beijing will replicate Universal Studios Hollywood's Fast & Furious Hollywood Drift Roller Coaster to replace the previous Fast & Furious: Supercharged.

On October 24 this year, the relevant person in charge of the Beijing Municipal Development and Reform Commission introduced at a press conference that in the fourth quarter, the city will focus on boosting consumption to expand effective demand, study reform measures in key consumption areas, and accelerate the follow-up construction of the first phase of the Universal Theme Park and the planning of the second and third phases of the project.
But the news only informs about the plan, not in detail.

In addition, in the random questionnaire survey, questions were also asked about the familiarity with the classic Universal Studios events - Halloween Horror Nights, and characters. Universal Studios Beijing is currently in intense preparation for the largest Halloween event since its opening.

Most of these are from Universal Studios Japan. Given the recognition and love of Universal Studios Japan by Asian tourists, there is a high probability that Universal Studios Beijing will introduce classic IPs and the highly anticipated Super Nintendo World from Universal Studios Japan. Super Nintendo World is the theme area with the highest call among visitors to Universal Studios Beijing for future expansion areas.
